1993 Map of Ella

About this map

Poverty Ridge and the deep incisions of Sixmile Canyon and Fourmile Canyon define this high-desert landscape in Morrow County during the early 1990s. The region is marked by a complex intersection of historic western transit and modern industrial utility. The long-established Immigrant Road and various Trail segments cross the southern portion of the map near Ella, while the central terrain is dominated by the massive Carty Reservoir, held by the Carty West Dam and Saddle Dam. This water system serves a substantial industrial footprint that includes a Powerplant, Substa, and several Industrial Waste Ponds. The presence of a Conveyor and the Boeing Well further illustrates the heavy infrastructure required for power generation and resource management in this arid stretch of Oregon, where older landmarks like Squaw Butte stand alongside modern utility hubs.
